In the 1930's Sanur was the beverly Hills of
Bali,with many rich and famous people having lagoon area. Colourful
outrigger canoes can be hired from the villagers for the island
hopping. There is ared brick path from the Grand Bali Beach Hotel
stretching beyond the Sanur Beach Hotel, making it possible to reach
the many hotels hotels and restaurants along the strip
Sanur
is where Bali's first luxury beach hotel was built over 30 years ago,
and has since been the spot for luxurious seaside accommodation.
Conveniently located near Denpasar on the main road leading to the
east, Sanur is not nearly as frenetic as Kuta, nor as well-mannered as
Nusa Dua. Many foreigners have built lavish villas and bungalows here
and this is the preferred place for up-market, long-term stays on the
island, especially in the BatuJimbar and Belanjong areas.
The main
attraction here is the white sand beach bordering a reef-sheltered
lagoon. The beach stretches south from the The Grand Bali Beach Hotel
and ends up in the mangrove marshes opposite Serangan Island. Due to
the protection of the lagoon, this beach is one of the safest on the
island, and thus perfect for families. There is no surf apart from out
on the reef, and one cannot swim at low tide, but at other times this
is the best place in Bali for windsurfing and sailing.
